Steal this Movie (2000): A historical docu-drama illuminating the courage and insanity of a brilliant activist whose zany intensity was partly responsible for ending the Vietnam War. Steal This Movie weaves the complex threads of Abbie Hoffman's life, from excited early protests and lectures, to marriage, to his pivotal role in the demonstrations and brutal police crack down that choked the 1968 Democratic Convention in Chicago, to his escape underground, to a paranoid new identity, and final reemergence. Starring Vincent D'Onofrio, Janeane Garofalo and Jeanne Tripplehorn.
